Re: cannot access My Verizon on either my computer or my phone

2014-01-14 Thread meadowlark77
Okay, now, this is interesting. On my new computer, I could access the my 
verizon. I could see the continue button and hit it. It's a very very 
awkward way they've got that sign in thing up there.

Thanks,

Brenda

Ok. what happens if you vo right after ending your user name. I think if I 
remember correctly you have to hit sign in which seems odd but if you do 
this, you can  enter in your password. I'm speaking from the experience that 
I saw a friend go through to sing in to their VZ account.

Hi Everyone,

Ever since I updated to Mavericks, a weird thing is happening when I type in

Single Quote.”  Does anyone know how I can get the apostrophe back?  Thanks in

 Just for future reference, If you know something is off topic for this

 However, since your post is very specifically related to Apple’s 
 platform, it is not, in actual fact, off topic at all.  :)
 
 So, there’s no issue.  The tutorial is very specific and that’s fine, 
 postings like this which directly deal with Apple’s hardware/software

 left and right arrows to turn quick nag off, and press up and down 
 arrows to focus  on the table of messages. Er, that’s Quick Nav, not 
 quick nag. Anyway, I press star, that’s shift 8, then A. This selects 
 all the messages on the page. Then, I press number, or hash, or pound, 
 which is shift 3. That deletes all selected messages. Now, this is in

Pull up a list of links with vo  u and left arrow to links if you are not on 
that, then hit  b a s and you will get to the basic html area. I can use the 
standard view pretty well actually except for this and Iuse nothing but that 
now a days.

Take care.

Pairing Bose Soundlink; Was: Adding Bluetooth Device in Mavericks

2014-01-14 Thread Marc Sutton
Thanks. I guess when you open Bluetooth preferences it automatically tries to 
pair. (New Mavericks behavior) I am trying to connect a bose soundlink speaker. 
When i hold down the pair button for 5 seconds and let go, that doesn’t seem to 
put it into the list of available devices. Anyone experienced with pairing this 
device with a Mac?
Thanks.

 see whether you have any letters for the solution, and then jump back to

Hello Caitlyn,

Yes, there’s the blind/PS version, but I think it just gives you the 
information to set up the crossword on a crossword board, which is the way I 
used to do them until the standard version became accessible. I like the fact 
that I can check that I’ve got the right answer, and even cheat when I get 
really frustrated.

Cheers,

Anne

thanks for this link again, Ann!
I had it bookmarked on my mac when I was running snow leopard, but lost it and 
then couldn’t remember which paper it came from!

did you notice that they have a “blind/ps” version, at least of the quick

Re: Adding Bluetooth Device in Mavericks

2014-01-14 Thread isaac
Go to system preferences then go to bluetooth then you should see a list of 
devices including the one you want to pair if you don’t see you’re device  in 
the list move you’re device closer to you’re mac so the mac can see you’re 
device also make sure you’re device is in pairing mode. Then once both devices 
are in pairing mode press the pair button to pair the device.

Re: Phonetic symbols in dictionaries under iOS 7 [was Re: entering IPA symbols on osx]

2014-01-14 Thread Esther
Sorry about, this.  I did draft up a partial reply about phonetic symbols now 
being spoken by VoiceOver under iOS 7 last fall, but I didn't mean to send it 
out now.  However, this is one of the features that I've noticed under iOS 7, 
along with more symbols in general being recognized by VoiceOver.  
Pronunciation symbols for phonetic characters have been read out under 
dictionary entries.

Cheers,

Esther

As a side effect of checking out Sarah's question about IPA symbols for

 Hello
 
 Just for future reference, If you know something is off topic for this 
 group, please do not post it to the group without first asking the list 
 owners, i.e., Mac Access Support, if it’s alright to do so.  However, 
 since your post is very specifically related to Apple’s platform, it is 
 not, in actual fact, off topic at all.  :)
 
 So, there’s no issue.  The tutorial is very specific and that’s fine, 
 postings like this which directly deal with Apple’s hardware/software are 
 perfectly acceptable and, indeed, very much welcomed within the group.  We 
 would certainly not wish to deny the members of this group the opportunity 
 of trying your recommendations.  So, thanks for the post.

 Hi all. After doing this, I thought I’d share with you all who I managed 
 this. Yes this is off topic, but you all can spread it around, I’m sure. 
 First, I go to gmail.google.com, with standard view. I press left and 
 right arrows to turn quick nag off, and press up and down arrows to focus  
 on the table of messages. Er, that’s Quick Nav, not quick nag. Anyway, I 
 press star, that’s shift 8, then A. This selects all the messages on the 
 page. Then, I press number, or hash, or pound, which is shift 3. That 
 deletes all selected messages. Now, this is in the inbox, and while it 
 will be helpful on android devices and gmail web views, Apple mail, 
 apparently, shows all mail that is not from you or in its trash folder. 
 So, you’ll have to go to all mail. So, press right or left arrow until you 
 hear something like inbox link. Keep quick Nav off throughout this whole 
 thing. While these are links, which you can click on with VO space, you 
 arrow down through them, like menu options. Then, when you’ve reached All 
 Mail, press enter. You’ll be placed in the list of all your mail, every 
 last one, including google chats and such. Here, select all as described 
 above, star then A. Then, move out of the table, and you’ll find “all X of 
 the messages on this page are selected. Click to select all Y in all 
 mail.” X being the number of messages you have set to display per page, 
 and Y being the total. So then, click the link, and you have all 8 or 
 so emails and chats selected. Then, press the hash/pound/number, and 
 you’ll be presented with a dialog. Click okay. Another dialogue will 
 proceed it, click okay. Then, close the tag and wait for an hour or so, 
 and your gmail will be cleansed of all the mutterings of a long-abandoned 
 email list and exs and all the other memories you’d prefer not to have 
 lingering around.

cannot access My Verizon on either my computer or my phone

2014-01-14 Thread meadowlark77
Hello y'all,

Seems I've constantly had this problem. I cannot access my verizon 
account on either my cell or my computer. What the problem seems to be is 
this. I can fill in the box that asks for your username. But then, when I 
get to the password, the edit box doesn't seem to appear, no matter what 
screen reader I use on the computer, and on the phone, it just does not 
appear at all. Is anybody having this problem and if you do, on the phone, 
for example, what do you do to get around this?

Thanks in advance,

Brenda

Subject: Re: Canadian Holiday Calendar in Mavericks.

Hello Jim,

Posting this again, since apparently my reply went to Leo, rather than the
list. (Grrr. have to figure out how to reconfigure my devices).

I thought that the holiday calendar was selected automatically once you
selected your region and languages under System Preferences > Language &
Region.  For example, if I change my region from "United States" under the
region pop up button to "Canada" by first selecting "Americas" and the
Canada, examining the Calendar for the week of Christmas will show an entry
for "Boxing Day" on Thursday, December 26, 2013.  There will be a note that
this event belongs to calendar " Canadian Holidays".

As for adding different types of calendars pre-Mavericks. There's an
iCalShare web site mentioned at AppleVis that lets you download specific
holiday and sports calendars and share them on line.  That works all the way
back to Snow Leopard.  The URL is:

http://www.icalshare.com

Apple also has a set of downloadable iCal calendars at:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther
